For example, if I type, “I lifted the” and then hit a space, my three word choices are “ban”, “ban on” and “same”. While autocorrect tries to tell me what word I am trying to spell, predictive typing tries to grok the context. Predictive typing is smart, but passively smart. Predictive typing keeps you in the driver’s seat. Predictive typing, on the other hand, is more of a passive experience. There’s a constant monitoring required on your part to avoid mistakes that are a combination of clumsiness on your part and a lack of contextual understanding on the other end.Īutocorrect is active and will hijack your typing if you don’t pay attention. If you don’t pay close attention, you’ll miss the inaccuracies and won’t get what you wanted. You order something, and a voice at the other end reads back what you ordered. Autocorrect is like ordering food at a drive-through window via a balky speaker. There’s a world of difference between autocorrect and predictive typing.
